Before that or what the universe is expanding into is non-dimensional of which there is no knowledge except through revelation. So, there no void or zillions of years before; void = space, and years = time. Everything within this universe is subject to the laws and dimensions and is constrained by a single dimension of time, where time cannot be stopped or reversed, and as such must have a beginning. If God is the causal agent that brought the universe into existence, He is not constrained or controlled by the cosmic timeline; hence, doesn’t require a beginning. Also, His capabilities are at least ∞^7 greater than any entity or the universe itself that's ushered along the universe’s one timeline.
According to xtianity, there was supposedly nothing but void for quadrillions of years. Then one day for no reason at all, this void decided to grow a brain, turn into a god and start thinking about making a universe. How did this brain survive long enough in the void to evolve into a god and where did it get its god powers from?
If you can't answer, then clearly the question is a stumper.
Atheist Credo: A universe by chance that also just happened to admit the observer by chance.
